Volume 1

As if echoing the crises of our contemporary societies, this work is the first volume resulting from a five-year program (ANHIMA/Paris 1) whose mission is to reconsider two decisive moments of the Roman Republic: the Second Punic War and the Civil Wars. Unanimously considered by the sources as traumatic “events,” the war against Hannibal, like the conflicts between imperatores, would be moments during which the Romans would have demonstrated remarkable resilience, but what precisely were the mechanisms and developments that were put in place by Roman society? How intense were the changes that these conflicts provoked for the history of the Republic? This first volume focuses on the recompositions implemented in the military and political fields.
